[*Update 8.19.13* This promo has expired. This deal was courtesy of The View, so they either removed the offer early, or they only gave out a limited supply. If you already signed up for the free book, it was added to your account and is STILL available to redeem before September 20th, 2013]

It’s another “Friday Freebie” alert! I have been a long-time fan of Shutterfly photo books. I’ve tried other companies, but Shutterfly seems to have the most user-friendly templates and is really great quality. Today’s deal is for a FREE Shutterfly 8×8 Hardcover book, up to 20 pages ($29.99 value)!

The deal is good until September 20th, 2013, and is available to new and existing Shutterfly customers. All you have to do is go here and either create a new account, or sign into your existing one. Then the promo for the book is automatically added to your account, and ready for your use! Just create your 8×8 20-page hardcover book and order before 9/20, and the $29.99 will be deducted from the total. You will still have to pay for shipping, which is usually around $8.

I find that a photo book looks so professional, and is a great way to memorialize a specific time or event. I’ve mostly created photo books themed around wedding events and vacations with the hubby, and plan to do the same with this. We’re actually getting ready to go on our 2nd anniversary to Canada (Montreal and Quebec), and I will definitely want to capture this trip!
